In Alfonso Cuaron's grim vision of the future, where a baby hasn't been born in eighteen years, this animatronic baby is even more important as a movie prop.

Animatronic baby from Children of Men

The film set in a dystopian England stars Clive Owen, Julianne Moore and Michael Caine, and sees Owen helping a pregnant woman get to the safety of those who want to find a way to cure the global infertility problem.

This life-like baby was on display at The Universal Experience prop and movie costume exhibit at Universal Studios Hollywood on July 16, 2009. It was quite creepy to be looking at this movie prop that so closely resembled a baby behind a glass viewing window.
